Hulim Heyerar blocked the blade with the Seven Luminaries just in ti, avoiding injury—but she was still sent flying by the sword aura.
“Hulim——！！？”
Little Semiris shouted in panic.
The Combined Golem noticed her but didn’t see her as a threat, maintaining its lock on Hulim.
Boom——！
It erupted with speed unmatched by the three previous Golems, chasing after Hulim.
Little Semiris watched, spinning in anxiety, unable to think of a way to help.
“Why is this happening?! I never heard they can rge after being defeated!!”“Semiris! Semiris! Wake up! Please wake up......”
......
Celestial Tiramsuin,
Semiris’s place of slumber.
“Wake up...... Please wake up......”
A call echoed repeatedly in her mind.
Semiris slowly opened her eyes.
“......Has it already been a year?”
“It’s almost a year—but that’s not important! Hulim is in danger!!”
“What？！！”
Semiris snapped fully awake.
Her erald eyes glowed brightly, and her consciousness plumted rapidly toward a location below the celestial realm......
Deep within the Mirnabith Mountains, in a hidden dungeon,
Little Semiris—Semiris’s avatar—stared anxiously at the battle ahead.
Suddenly, her expression froze, her eyes losing focus for a mont.
An consciousness descended upon her.
Monts later, her eyes regained their light—no longer naive, but calm and profound.
The aura around her beca elusive and unfathomable......
......
After being sent flying, Hulim quickly shattered the lingering sword aura and stabilized her posture mid-air.
Just as she regrouped, the Combined Golem was upon her again.
Hulim unleashed a barrage of magic without hesitation.
Yet the Combined Golem rely raised its left hand, holding the shield in front of it—blocking all her attacks effortlessly, leaving the shield unscathed.
“How high is that shield’s magic resistance?! ”
Hum——！
As the Combined Golem defended, the wheel behind it spun faster. A massive magic array unfolded before it.
“Oh no！”
Hulim hastily cast a defensive spell.
Boom——！！！
A scarlet light beam shot forth, slamming directly into her shield.
Crack, crack......
The shield didn’t hold long.
Shatter——！
It broke apart, and Hulim was sent flying by the beam.
Only the Seven Luminaries’ innate defense saved her from harm.
Whoosh！
Before she could steady herself, the Combined Golem chased again. Its longsword blazed brightly, ready to strike.
Hulim could only parry with Helkem, casting magic repeatedly in an attempt to break through.
But......
The Combined Golem’s abilities were astonishing—its defense, speed, and attack all reached Rank A ！
It was a nearly perfect combat machine！
Though Hulim wielded the Seven Luminaries and Helkem, she had only just been promoted to Rank A, still unable to fully master Tier 5 Spells.
Facing the Combined Golem’s relentless assault, she could only defend desperately. If the battle continued like this, defeat was inevitable......
“Hulim——！！！”
A familiar voice reached her ears.
“Little Semiris？！”
What is she doing here？It’s too dangerous！
Hulim shouted urgently:
“Stay away from here！”
“Don’t worry—leave the rest to ！”
Little Semiris replied loudly.
At the sa ti, an overwhelming aura erupted from her.
“？！！”
Hulim was shocked—this aura was identical to when Little Semiris first appeared.
But she should have barely any energy left.
Could it be that she’s going to use her last strength to help ？
But if she does that......
The Combined Golem, relentlessly pursuing Hulim, its eyes flickering as it locked onto the tiny fairy.
Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation.
It seed to be analyzing which target had higher priority.
“Little Semiris, stop！I’ll find a way to deal with it！”
Hulim yelled anxiously.
Little Semiris glanced at her, smiling softly.
“Hulim, you’re still as stubborn as that ti. I could have handled this all along.”
“！！！”
Hulim’s pupils contracted—she realized sothing.
She stared intently at Little Semiris.
“Semir...... is？”
“That’s right~！”
Little Se——no, Semiris, smiled.
“My dear Hulim, have you forgotten who I am？I am the Fairy Queen！”
Hum——！！！
Semiris unfolded a massive magic array, targeting the Combined Golem.
“I’ll take care of it. Hulim, go get the Philosopher’s Stone！”
After analyzing, the Combined Golem shifted its target to Semiris—the greater threat.
It also unfolded a massive magic array before itself.
“Semiris, I......”
Hulim looked at her, wanting to say more.
“Go, Hulim. Now, the Seven Luminaries’ power is yours......”
Semiris said firmly.
Boom——！！！
Their attacks collided mid-air, creating a catastrophic explosion. The aftershock swept across the entire space like a storm.
Semiris’s expression changed slightly.
She clicked her tongue silently.
Oops, I ssed up！
I should have infused more power into this avatar！Why is my current output—
Not even reaching the threshold of Rank S？！
Watching Semiris engage the Combined Golem, Hulim’s emotions cald.
“......I understand, Semiris. I’ll be right back to help you！”
With that, she rushed toward the platform without hesitation.
Noticing her movent, the Combined Golem tried to stop her.
“Don’t you dare！”
But Semiris’s attack interrupted it.
As Hulim drew closer to the light orb sealing the Philosopher’s Stone, the Combined Golem’s attacks grew more ferocious.
It would stop at nothing to block her！
Hum——！！！
It unleashed its maximum power, summoning an enormous magic array.
Semiris refused to back down, casting a spell of comparable strength.
Boom——！！！
A giant fireball lit up the sky, turning the entire space as bright as day.
While Semiris held the Combined Golem back with all her strength,
Hulim finally reached the Philosopher’s Stone.
She raised Helkem, swinging with all her might at the light orb.
Boom——！
A flash of sword light sliced through the orb.
A tiny crack appeared on its surface,
then spread rapidly.
Crack！
In the next mont, the orb shattered completely.
The Philosopher’s Stone’s seal was broken.
Hulim stared at the crystal sphere floating before her, feeling an indescribable, profound mana emanating from it.
When she probed it with her own mana, it was like falling into an abyss—endless darkness stretching as far as the eye could see......
“This is...... the Philosopher’s Stone.”
Its mana fluctuations are incredible......
The Philosopher’s Stone left Hulim astonished.
Boom！
Another violent explosion echoed from the sky behind her.
Hulim snapped back to her senses.
She quickly stabilized her mind, then reached out her right hand toward the Philosopher’s Stone.
The mont her fingertips touched it,
a strange sensation washed over her.
The world seed to freeze. All scenes vanished, leaving only her and the Philosopher’s Stone.
Hulim stared at it in confusion, unsure of what was happening.
In the next instant,
a powerful suction pulled at her. Her consciousness was uncontrollably drawn into the Philosopher’s Stone,
tumbling downward, deeper and deeper—until she fell into a world within......
